If they contract covid while still on the employers plan or Cobra, they may have to pick up the deductibles and copays. Then there are the aftercare costs of treating long covid, disability etc.

If they are completely uninsured, they may be in better shape. But I suspect it varies by state, especially for the after care costs.
